The change being that there was expected to be a change in the situation, which isn't happening with 18A going slower than expected. This article doesn't have much focus on the 18A part though.

Intel's next-generation [...] process [...] more slowly than expected.

When was the last time one of Intel's next-gen processes went well? 🫠

In 2018, Tour and his colleagues discovered that this rapid heating process, called flash joule heating, can turn any carbon source—including coal, biochar, and mixed plastic—into graphene

Wait we discovered how to transform mixed plastic into graphene seven years ago wtf?

Looks pretty good at $30 USD, though even that price might be tough for patient buyers against dual towers that go on sale.

Tom's Hardware has the first review I read and I was quite surprised by the quality of the review, where they ("partly because our main testing 9950X3D system is encountering problems at the moment") compare it only against a Montech NX400 and an unnamed prototype dual-tower lmao

if they fall combined their money they could probably create/fund a new platform that is actually good

The closest equivalents I know of are Nebula (which doesn't do [live] streaming, and avoids moderation problems by just having no user discussion), and Floatplane. Even though each of the two platforms is "successful", afaik creators that use them still do so only as a secondary platform on top of their primary platform (YouTube). Based on that I'm not sure displacing (as opposed to augmenting) one of the big video/video streaming platforms is even practically possible right now without vc/saudi/gambling levels of money to burn.

Even Twitch -- despite its not-exactly-amazing state -- was not profitable as of 1.5 years ago: https://dotesports.com/streaming/news/twitch-ceo-confirms-company-is-still-not-profitable-but-amazon-has-been-extremely-supportive

Hi yakko, we're going to help you get better okay? We just need to start off by asking you a few questions.

1. How often do you ponder about orbs?

We all know that logistics is the real reason we follow hololive

She left a post about this on YouTube:

HELLO MY GREMLINGS!!!
I’ve spent a lot of time reading through your kind messages and heartfelt letters on both YouTube and Twitter and it’s been very healing!!

Since its realllyyy present on my mind right now and we’re about to have a hard reset with some streams in between, I just wanted to get some words out while it was still fresh 🙂‍↕️ [MHL: I assume this is actually the nodding emoji and my system just doesn't support it]

While I intend to talk more about the creative processes that went into the making and conception of the song on stream, I’m not really good at talking about emotions and feelings… So I don’t know how much of that I’ll cover 🥸

I’ve been thinking about this for a long time, basically since debut, that I wanted to put something out that means a lot to me.

Something that’s intrinsically a part of me, has shaped me, and at its core, is a part of who I am.

I think I wouldn’t be here today if not for gigipapa. He was my biggest supporter of all time!! He indulged in my love for anime, brought me and my friends to anime conventions, bought me strange wigs just because I wanted them, taught me about art, music, old television shows, the stars, and he never once questioned or belittled anything I wanted to do or any of the dreams that I had (even tho I was a rly cringe kid…. But u know.. I was a kid)

I don’t talk about gigipapa on stream not for any strong reason, but mostly because I know it turns into a heavy topic and I typically don’t have the mental capacity to deal with that sort of conversation. It’s become a defense mechanism of sorts, you avoid talking about something long enough, you don’t have to deal with the awkwardness of having to have that conversation with someone on the street that you hardly know. It just gets easier to avoid it than it is to confront it.

So I hope you understand if I’m reticent to share or talk about these feelings as a part of my boundaries! That’s not to say I think you shouldn’t talk about it at ALL, but have some kindness if I noticeably avoid a question or a message just because I’m not in the headspace to do so.

But I think art is beautiful!! Art resonates with people in so many ways and affects them differently and speaks to them at different points in life. Art gives you a way to express yourself, all those feelings inside of you, concentrated and formed like a little ball into one thing. And once it’s done you can just shoot it out into the universe and close your eyes and pretend you didn’t do that!!

And I’ve always wanted to create something, a celebration of life, something that just screams “I’ll keep going!!!!!”

I don’t think loss or grief ever goes away, you carry a part of that with you every day. I once heard it described as, at first, it starts off really big, and it can’t stop bumping into the walls and causing you to get upset. But over time it gets smaller and smaller, and it stops bumping into the walls as much, but every once in a while it’ll hit the wall and remind you it’s there.

Thinking about it in this way had helped me a lot in the beginning, and I do believe that you become stronger. You carry those good times with you and it gives you hope for a better future, sometimes things are bleak and you don’t know if there’s any way of digging yourself out of that hole and you’ve resigned to sitting at the bottom of it. Even though it’s hard, I hope you’re able to find a reason to stand up, and know that I’ll be cheering you on!!!

Thank you for entrusting me with your words and stories, I’m happy you’re all here in the shoebox with me!!

Imo that's as much a problem of the sorting algorithm as it is with a single community blasting out too many posts at once without any consideration for how current frontends are unable to usefully integrate that into people's feeds. A couple of years ago nanoUFO was being a bit (subjectively) overenthusiastic about posting - I counted and !games@sh.itjust.works had 40 posts at once from them and it made the first couple pages of my feed basically unusable for a while.

Scaled is also probably better suited for your subscribed feed rather than /All.

It took a bit to get through the whole thing, but this looks like the most exciting development in the niche field of hardware gaming reviews since 1% lows became a thing (RIP Tech Report)

The community (which isn't an instance!) has been there for a couple of years already: https://sh.itjust.works/post/27701

If you haven't come across it before there is the Lemmy Explorer tool (with options for Piefed and Mbin as well): https://lemmyverse.net/communities

Oh my god lol (edit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJY-bMbj4MQ )

I'd be surprised if they end up doing collab stuff tho, so it's still a big loss for me :'(
